Connections

It’s connections that matter.  Real connections. In person, face to face connections.  That’s what really matters.  Technology allows us to connect with people we can’t physically connect with. And that’s a wonderful thing. And that connection is better than no connection. However, face to face can’t be replaced.  So your quality of life is tied directly to the connections you have and how often you make them. 

Daylight

Make the most of daylight.  In 24 hours you only get so much day light.  In your lifespan, you only get so much daylight.  Don’t waste a moment of it.  Let there be purpose in your action. In rest, in leisure let there be purpose. In work and relationships, find purpose.  Daylight only lasts so long. 

Health

What does money matter when you don't have health. And health is a complex thing. It's physical, yes, but also mental, emotional, and spiritual. If one has true health, that is their wealth.

Data

Data is important. It helps us make decisions. But it's good to learn how to look past the data. There's usually more than just numbers. Understanding all the nuances behind the data is important. Decisions can be made based on data alone, and some should be. But some decisions can be made with data as a factor but accounting for other aspects too. A balanced decision is best, where head and heart can agree.

More Mentors

Find more mentors. Mentors don't have to have every answer. But they can provide support and guideance you can't have on your own.

Greatness

Greatness often looks like hard work. It looks like lots of small, repeatable habits.  It looks like faithfulness.  Then when the big moments come, you’re prepared.  Greatness happens on the off days. On the days you don’t feel like working or showing up.  Greatness looks like a lot of preparation and hard work  

Repeatable

Is what you’re doing repeatable?  If not, it likely won’t change anything for you. Our life is changed yes by big decisions, but what really changes us is the repeatable habits we embrace. Good or bad, the habits we embrace will form who we are.
